Thanks for allowing God to use you in a mighty way.” – a marriage retreat participant |  A car or truck needs attention when the engine backfires, the brakes squeal, and the warning lights refuse to dim.

Couples must be able to access the Internet prior to the seminar in order to complete the confidential online Family Builders Couple Checkup (an extra cost of $29.95 per couple). They will bring the printed report to the seminar because it is a primary tool in the Marriage Tune-up Seminar. The report will remain confidential as they will not share the results with others. The Family Builders Couple Checkup is based on over 25 years of research with the PREPARE/ENRICH Program. The Marriage Tune-up Seminar includes interactive and practical teaching by Willie Batson, President & Founder of Family Builders Ministries, explanations of how to interpret the results of the Family Builders Couple Checkup, and significant chunks of time for spouses to have purposeful conversations in a safe environment about their own marriage tune-up.Seminar ScheduleSaturday: | | 8:30 a.m. | Doors Open | 9:00 | Session I – "The Strength of Your Marriage" | 10:30 | Break | 10:45 | Session II – "The Warning Lights in Marriage" | 12:00 noon | Lunch Break | 1:15 p.m. | Session III – "Misfires and Backfires in Marital Intimacy" | 2:30 | Break | 3:00 | Session IV – "Focus on a Great Future Together" | 4:30 | Seminar Dismissal |
